BOBSC report 11 October 2015 - Yorkshire Championships

 

Last weekend saw BOBSC return to Ponds Forge but this time for the Yorkshire Championships, with 33 of our swimmers competing that had achieved the qualifying times across all age ranges.

 

The team had a very successful meet competing in a total of 96 swims and achieved 55 personal best times which has also led to a number of our 11 years and older swimmers achieving the North East Regional times for the competition at the end of November.  Although the qualifying times related to recent swims, some of these personal bests were up to 8 seconds off previous times.

 

With a number of top 10 finishes across age groups, Carly Herbert Head Coach said ‘Well done to all our swimmers from the weekend, you have done the club proud with the strong performances’. 

 

Medalists from the weekend, Megan Sharp (9) who achieved 4 medals from her 5 swims, with Silver in 50m Fly in a fantastic 39.97 seconds, Bronze in 100m Individual Medlay, 50m Freestyle and 50m Backstroke.

 

Abigail Miles (11), who broke a number of her personal bests achieved Bronze medal in the 100m Breaststroke in a time of 1:23.63, and 4th in the 100m Backstroke.

 

Finally, Curtis Harper (10) was awarded Gold in the 100m Backstroke with 1:23.04 through a very exciting race seeing the top 4 with a time spread of just 1.5 seconds.

 

Other competitors who entered the gala and contributed to a fantastic weekend of personal and club achievements were Lewis Baker, Jasmine Ball, Sam Charlesworth, Kloe Eade, Lucy Greatorex, Georgia Hamblett, Milly Hamby, Lucy Hatfield, Corinne Hill, Alanah Hill, Georgia Lee, Gregory Lugton, Finley McNicholas, Phoebe McNicholas, Daniel Miles, Holly Milnes, Emily Norton, Harriet Ostrowski-Jones, Jessica Richardson, Elliot Robinson, Elizabeth Safonika, Thomas Speed, Alexander Tikhonov, Libby Turner, Eleanor Valentine-Bull, Ella Waller, Neve Wilkie, Anya Yates, Lola Yoxall, Macy Yoxall.
